My guy keeps trying to shoot for my fingers whenever I put my hand in the cage. I had been handfeeding him to help him get accustomed to me. Today he just reeled himself all the way in and bit my finger :D Funny as that was I'm still afraid he could hurt himself.
I don't pull away once he's...
Noticed over the last week his casque is starting to twist slightly as it grows. It's not a serious kink and it's not floppy or anything ridiculous like that but I'm wondering if it's a sign of any deficiency?
He has grown super fast and I've seen other healthy looking yemens without...
I was under the impression this guy was 5 months old. But some forum members seem to think he is very big for that age. Guy at the store said 12 weeks old when I got him. Here's a pic -
He is pretty puffed out... but I'm not 100% sure on his age and I did think he might be older than the...
Moved into his new reptibreeze. Just wondering if this is normal for a veiled... looks mildly dehydrated to me but I'm no expert so... Urates are normal and white so I don't think it's a serious thing. Just want to get ahead of it if it's developing.

Pretty much everything I've read says that clutches from retained sperm tend to produce weaker offspring. But it's hard to find details on how much weaker they are. I suppose my question is - Are they so much weaker that it's simply not worth incubating them or is it possible to produce a decent...
I'm aware FLChams have some beautiful trans for sale but I'm uncomfortable with the idea of shipping from the US even if they would agree to it and it could be done.
Anybody know of a UK based calyptratus breeder who has these?
3 month old veiled chameleon. The UV bulb is mounted above the cage and he spends most of his time on the back wall at the top right up against the mesh. I have felt the mesh and it's not hot so the bulb is far enough away that he won't burn himself by staying there. I'm just wondering if this...
Looking at the water quality report for my area and I can't see anything that could harm my chams. Is there anything in particular I should be looking for?
Chlorine is extremely low (<1mg/litre) and Calcium is actually fairly high, which I would think would benefit my cham as opposed to...
Got my little veiled Yoshi about a week ago now. He's about 3months old. Worried about some dry white spots of skin that have started appearing on his face and body. Here's a pic so you can see what I mean -
